Hi, I just joined PaddleWise & would like to introduce myself. I have paddled for about 30 years, starting in home-made kayaks. The first ones were skin & frame (scrap wood & 6 mil plastic), then an 18 foot strp tandem & a 16 foot plywood, all designed by myself & all having some rather interesting handling characteristics. Eight years ago I bought a tandem tripping canoe & later a solo flatwater cruiser. This winter I plan to build a stitch&glue solo canoe that John Winters designed for me. I like week long flatwater trips in Algonquin with friends or my teenage kids. Please take a look at my homepage. -- Lloyd Bowles The Mad Canoeist "Keep the open side up!" http://www.fortunecity.com/greenfield/clearstreets/358/index.html *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Oct 05 1998 - 08:27:02 PDT
